Stand Up Straight - with Harry Styles. (Under construction.)

Pieces.

Harry and Selena weren't really doing anything that'll break the rules, but considering they were standing 2 inch apart, and Harry was without a shirt, they didn't really look so innocence either. There In the door way stood Esther Mikaelson not saying a word, although she didn't really need to say anything because that look on her face said enough. And if looks could kill, well, let's just say Selena wouldn't be looking down at the ground right now, she would be buried under it. Harry was the first to speak. "Mother. I didn't know you were to be in the castle tonight." She didn't say a word. Harry looked between her and Selena. "Mum, this isn't what-"

"I would hope not." She said, cutting him off.

"I should go." Selena said.

"Did i ask you to leave? No. Nor did I ask you to speak so just stand there and be quiet....please." Esther said to her. Selena might have said about the tone she was using with her, being the woman of the castle or not,  but now knowing that they're vampires who could kill her, let alone one of them Wanted to kill her, she let it go. "She can leave when she gets ready too. You're not in charge of her." Harry said. Selena was  taken aback by Harry was getting so angry. She understood that he was defending her, and she like that he was, but this was his mother. She has been taking care of him since childbirth.... right? "Oh come now, really Harry. A dirty village girl is the one you've taken a liking to? You know our standards are higher than that" Esther said to him. "Dirty?" Selena repeated. Vampire or not, she really wanted to hurt her now. "You are pushing it big time, back down." Harry said. And just as tension started to rise, everyone's attention was turned to something else. It was a scream that echoed through the whole castle. But it wasn't just a scream, it was a scream from a familiar voice. Caroline's. All at once, the doors to each Mikaelson bedroom flew open and, including Harry and Selena, they all raced downstairs. They were all at the top of the castle so when it came to getting down in that narrow staircase it took them more than a minute to do so. When they finally got to Caroline's room they opened the door to find it in disaster. Clothing everywhere, the lamp knocked over, the things on the dresser spilled on the floor and there in corner on the room was Caroline. Crying and shaking. Nik wanted to go to her aid but Elijah told Selena and Rebekah to go considering her chest was bare. Rebekah didn't really know Caroline as well so she let Selena go talk to her while she went to find a piece of clothing for her to put on that hadn't been on the floor. Slowly walking up to her, Selena asked "......Caroline?" In a hushed voice. All the men at the door were pretending not to listen but considering that they're vampires it wasn't that hard to guess that they could hear them. Especially when all they heads shot up when Caroline said. "I can't go with you.." in a shaking low voice. Selena looked over to Rebekah who looked just as confused as she did. Then she looked to Elijah who mouthed "keep her talking" to her. "Can't go with who?" She said in a more loud voice so she could really hear her. Caroline look up and when she saw that it Selena she jumped up to hug her, as if seeing her in the room for the first time. "It's okay. You're fine Caroline but you have to tell me what happen." Caroline slowly pull away from their hug and said "....what are you talking about?....you were there." Needless to say there was a silence in the room. Rebekah finally broke away from their conversion long enough to find a night dress for Caroline to put on. "Here. Put this on." Rebekah told her. She put on her night gown, as all the men finally were able to come in. "Are you alright?" Niklaus asked. "I think so, but did you all see it?" Caroline asked them all. "...see what?" Selena asked. "IT! I don't know what it was! Why are you asking me!? You were there, Selena!" Caroline yelled. "Okay. Calm down, come sit." Elijah said as he lead her to the bed. "Now Caroline," he explained slowly. " Selena was upstairs with us. Tell us what happen from the beginning." She stopped crying and she slowed her breathing as she began to remember what happened "Jenna took me to my room and then she left" she was thinking out loud. "Do you know where she went after that?" Finn asked. "She came to get me." Selena explained. "After she dropped all the other girls off at their rooms she took me upstairs to harry." "Yes, I remember seeing her when I opened the door." Harry said. "Okay. Then what happen?" Asked Nik. "Well, I remember i was getting ready for bed. I was taking off my clothes when I felt something hot on my back, I turned around to see these.. these Eyes watching me undress." And that last part stuck out for everyone. "Let me guess. Those eyes were red." Klaus said. "Yes." She confirmed. "What the hell's going on?" Rebekah stated. Elijah got up, turned to his family and said "We need to find out what's in the castle."

"We need to find out how it got in the castle in the first place because that means more can get in." Nik said. "Or who bought it to the castle. There is lot of people here." Rebekah said. "She's right. Someone could have brought it in." Finn said. "How are we suppose to find out what it is if we don't know what it looks like?" Harry asked. "He's right. It never shows it's body." Selena said. "But it did to me." Caroline, who was as quiet as a whisper while they were talking, told them. "....what love?" Niklaus asked. "It did show it's body. It was sort of round-like, it had a lot of black smoke around it so I couldn't make out anything, but it did speak." She said. They all looked at her like she just solved all their problems. "What did it say? What did it sound like?" Elijah asked.  It sounded horrible. Like it was gasping for breath and at the same time it sounded like it was echoing. It sounded like death really. But the only thing it said was that it was looking for a virgin." It was Finn, Nik and Elijah whose faces changed. Rebekah and Harry looked at them with confusion. Was something happening that they should know about? "Are you a virgin?" Elijah asked. "Yes, but now that i think about it more it sounded more like...like it telling me what it was doing not like it wanted me in particular." Finn turned to Elijah and whispered "That's not right. If it wanted a virgin it would have took her."

"Did it say any else?" Asked Elijah. She shook her head no. "What about the room? How'd it get like this?"

"Whatever that thing was did it. It started ripping apart the whole room when I screamed. I don't know if it had gotten mad because cause I screamed or...if it was laughing." Elijah nodded and turned around to the room. "Rebekah, Selena, Harry, stay here with Caroline. Nik, come with me. Finn go and fetch the two eldest Salvatores."  "Elijah please don't do that over-protective-big-brother-thing, why are me and Bekah staying put?" Harry said. "Niklaus?" Elijah turned over to him. "Stay. Here." Was all klaus had to say. And Harry and Rebekah folded their arms at the same time. Although Nik was close to Harry, he was close to Rebekah too. Their parents use to called them 'the twins' when they were younger because they were so inseparable. So both of them really listen to Nik the most. "Would you like for me to get the other girls? Or maybe Jenna?" Elijah asked Caroline. She nodded. "Rebekah, could you go get Jenna and maybe Elena too please?" He asked her. "Ugh. Not goody-goody too shoes Elena." Rebekah complained. "Do it. Let's go." Klaus said as he, Finn and Elijah walked outside the door. As they made their way down the hall Finn said. "If that thing wanted a virgin it would have taken her and we know it."

"Are calling her a liar?" Nik accused. "Her story is not adding up." Finn said. "No, it wouldn't to a close-minded simpleton like you." Nik said with a sarcastic smile. "Enough. Nik calm down and Finn she is not lying. In fact, I think i know what she's talking about. "What is it?" Finn asked. "Go get the Salvatores. Niklaus go get Bonnie. Now." - Back in Caroline's room, Jenna was making sure she was okay while Elena went to talk to Selena and Harry. "I can't believe I didn't hear her yell. You guys heard her and you were at the top of the castle." She said. "It's okay Elena. I just hope they find whatever that thing is. It's scarring the hell out of everyone." Selena said. "Never in my 378 years have I ever heard of anything as she described." Elena told her. "Oh yeah. I forgotten that you were a vampire." Selena said. "And what's wrong with us vampires?" Harry asked passing by with a smile. "Nothing Harry." Selena answered with a eye-roll, trying to hide a smile herself. But Elena notice it. "What's that about?" She asked. "Last time I checked you weren't very fun of prince Harry."

"Yes. And last time I checked Mr. Stefan Salvatore was engaged." Selena told her with a wink. Elena was confused at first then it clicked for her. "Harry!" She turned around and yelled. "What? I didn't say anything that everyone didn't already know." He said trying to look innocent. "Look, I don't know what he told you but lord Salvatore and I are just friends, nothing more." She said. "Not what I heard last time you both were here." Jenna said walking by. "Jenna!" She said turning completely red. And everything in the room, even Caroline for the first time that night, turn to laughter. Back in Elijah's room or should I say the secret room behind Elijah's bookshelf. Nik, Finn, Damon, Stefan, and Bonnie stood before elijah as he said "..it came to her, but I think I know what it is. Finn, you said you think she's lying but she's not. Her story sounded like it was in pieces because it was. She screamed and no one else could hear it but us and we were on the top level of the castle." He waited for them to catch on. "Whatever that thing was it did that. It made sure you all heard it and made sure we didn't." Bonnie said. "That's right. And she said it sounded like it was telling her that it looking for a virgin, but she is one and it still didn't take her." He waited for someone else to put the pieces together. "It's not looking for just any virgin it's looking for a specific person." Damon thought. Elijah nodded. "I know what it is." Nik said. Then finally Stefan said out loud what everyone began to figure out already. "There's a oni in the castle."
